Disney Live-Action Remake Songs Ranked After The Little Mermaid (by juliadelbel)
When a musical is adapted to film, one thing’s for certain: a new song will be added whether it needs one or not .
It’s only before the two-and-a-half minute mark of this three-and-a-half minute song that Hanks even attempts to sing. While it isn’tLes MiserablesI’m not generally one to advocate for the removal of the more “talkative” numbers from a musical’s soundtrack album, but there’s a decent case to be made for this one to have missed the cut.Okay, maybe Tom Hanks holding off on actually singing wasn’t such a bad idea after all.
But really, this song would be bad no matter where in the film it landed. Awkwafina may have been a rapper at one point, but there’s a reason she’s had more success as an actor. But a lot of the blame has to go to Lin-Manuel Miranda, who couldn’t resist throwing his signature style into a movie that didn’t really suit it. It usually works pretty well, but The Little Mermaid12.
This number serves as a replacement for the 1955 version’s “Siamese Cat Song,” which was, well, racist, and obviously wouldn’t be in the remake. Just like that song, this one is about the cats destroying the house to the shock and horror of Lady.
